A minimum of 45 hours of playtime must be achieved by all participating factions during a war - failure to do so will result in a forfeit on the 3rd offense. (players idling for 300+ seconds will be automatically kicked from the server)

If 20 percent of a faction has been removed (uninvite/leave) during a war, it will result in an automatic forfeit for that faction.

If a team achieves a kill-death ratio (KDR) of 1.8 after 7000 kills, they will be declared victorious.

Factions must participate a minimum of 3 days (72 hours) after a war has been initiated before they may be allowed to surrender.

W2) - Alternative Accounts

It is strictly forbidden to use an alternate account during a war.

An alternative account is any account below the level of your highest-level account; You cannot declare a random account as your "main" account.

Punishments:
IP ban for duration of war or longer

W3) - Invites

Inviting an irregular amount of players prior a war is prohibited and will be considered as mass-inviting.

Leaving a faction to join another for the sole purpose of participating in a war is also prohibited.

Punishments:
Admin uninvite of all flagged players

W4) - Civilian / Alliance involvement

Civilians are under no circumstances allowed to participate/aid in a war.

Allied factions may aid in a war by supplying the warring participants with materials, drugs, vehicles, keys, etcetera, but not by directly assisting them in fights or flees. (An exception to this rule is if a faction not partaking in the war is robbing a business/warehouse or taking a turf)

Observing/spectating a war is prohibited - do not follow or stand near warring participants.

Law enforcement factions are permitted to intervene.

Punishments:
240 minute admin jail
or
24-168 hour suspension

W5) - Just Spawned (JS) tag

If a player is marked as 'Just Spawned', they are not to be interacted with by any means.

This also applies to the player that is marked as 'Just Spawned' - they are not to interact with any players.

Attacking, following, and blocking all count as direct interaction with a player tagged as 'Just Spawned'.

Punishments:
120-240 minute admin jail

W6) - Revenge-killing / Returning to battle

Participants of a war may only return to a fight they previously died in if their opposition is present.

There is a war related fight happening at Rodeo involving all warring participant factions.
In the event of an external faction not participating in the war (e.g. SASF or PD) being present and actively fighting at that location, the possibility of them being caught in the crossfire and being revenge-killed is high - which is why this exception is in place and external factions must accept this when partaking in fights involving warring participants.

This does not grant immunity for warring participants in regards to the revenge-killing rule. Warring participants who deliberately seek out to revenge kill non-warring participants while there are no active battles between the warring faction participants will be punished accordingly.

Punishments:
120-240 minutes admin jail

W7) - Other war rules / clarifications:
